NESHAP for Plastic Parts and Products Surface Coating (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPP) (Final Rule)

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Plastic Parts and Products Surface Coating were proposed on: December 4, 2002; promulgated on April 19, 2004; and amended on April 24, 2007. These regulations apply to both existing and new facilities that perform surface coating of plastic parts and products, and that use at least 100 gallons of HAP-containing coatings annually, and where the potential to emit any single hazardous air pollutant (HAP) is greater than or equal to 10 tons per year, or where the potential to emit any combination of HAPS is greater than or equal to 25 tons per year. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart PPPP. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
